For nerfing a meta-defining agent right before Masters but not in time for the regional stages 2 years in a row
Riot doesn’t get flamed enough

Did this for Toronto. G2 got their shit cooked and didn’t even have Swiss to adapt. Anyways, pls stop doing ts, do it before or after a split. Particularly because it cooks teams which qualed in one meta and now look like frauds in another
Good part is this time G2 is one of the few teams actually attempting to move away from Neon early (the other being PRX), so it won’t affect them as hard. Teams like LEV are screwed tho
LEV isnt screwed when they have SATO and NEON and KINGG on their team, spike will adjust dont worry
Spike didn’t do a great job playing anything other than Neon this year so I’m not sure he will but ignorance is bliss
Last year I don't think he was good on anything other than Neon either. Not like Neon is killed though so they're probably just gonna keep Spike on it.
It's the bias that people didn't like the agents they did this too at least to me since people had spent months coping about them they were happy when they were nerfed and noone thought about the timing
truth nuke i have no idea why they do that. just wait for masters to end. teams have been grinding strats for two months just for them to be thrown on the garbage right before the thing they have been working on for lol
As much as Neon meta is boring af I agree making big nerfs/changes to the meta like this right before a tournament especially when the teams that qualify got there because they are the best at that meta is incredibly dumb and they always fucking do it.
